Please stop making everyone else on KZfaq look bad

God I love these episodes. Is it art?, is it mechanics?, is it engineering?. Not sure, and I don't care. You're a bloody genius, man. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks for the great original content. Your videos are exactly how I imagine my mechanic completes repairs on my car…I hope

I absolutely love your photography, and the way you animate everything. It must add so much time to your production, but please know that this is absolutely beautiful, unique, and a real pleasure to watch. Keep it up!

i honestly don't understand how you only have a little over 100 k subs. by far the most easy and fun channel to watch on KZfaq. look forward to every upload. good job mate from Australia

Is there no end to this man’s talents? A pure pleasure to watch.

the most patient man in the world right here. love your work mate

This is probably the most unique car restoration channel on KZfaq, keep up the good work

Only you and Project Binky are allowed to take this long between episodes! As always, worth the wait.

I hadn't heard of your channel before. A friend sent it to me because he thought I might be impressed by the stop motion. Boy, was he right! This was an awesome video.

Love the audio mix between working on the car and background music, it's tasteful and done so right. Also really appreciate how real your videos are, how you don't hide the setbacks and even flubs. Makes it very relatable.

I could watch stop motion metalwork all day. Bravo!

Hi George Nice to see you´r back I love your videos and big thanks to the guys who´s loft you are borrowing

This is a masterclass in the art of making a KZfaq video!

That Soup stamp in the metal is a nice, subtle touch of personalization to the project. Nicely done!

The subliminal messaging in the weld flash is a unique concept! It made me laugh! Thanks George

I don't know where you get the energy, mentally and physically to keep going, and then to record, edit and add cool tunes to make these videos. Absolute respect to you!

THANK YOU for bringing up the topic of wearing a respirator while welding. I do the same. I also work in pulmonology research, and let me tell you, one does not want breathe welding fumes. They're essentially vaporized metal that gets very deep into your lungs. Lastly, this was a triumph of an episode. A real treasure, and worth the wait! Keep up the good work, mate.

THE Most watchable twenty-three minutes in all of KZfaq. Why do I feel so upbeat about watching you do chassis restoration for the better part of half an hour? I can't pinpoint it, but you manage it every damn time. You're nailing it!

Miss you George!!!!! You are the very very best! Hope to see you soon

Just beautiful. Watching that hole appear on the chassis piece is pure art! And it’s genuine motivation to keep going on my restoration project when it all seems too much. One step at a time is the message - loud and clear. Thanks George.

I’ve spent all day watching all the Lotus videos and didn’t do any work. Love the level of craft you bring - it’s real DIY as you do and learn and do again. Btw.. it’s a little late now, but you should use weld through primer.. comes in copper or zinc. Prime your pieces before welding and you don’t need to grind to bare metal when you weld.

Liking the soup logo on the repair panel - very subtle , but very good !

Beautiful photography as ever. Worth the wait.

Very nice episode George :) I believe every word when you say 23 minutes of content takes forever... because you have higher production standards than most multi billion dollar TV networks AND you're the writer, actor, director, gaffer, habadasher, runner, camera and lighting crew, sound wizard, and editor.

First time viewer and subbed by the time you started to repair the bottom of the chassis. Amazing production talent that must take you an ordainment amount of time but that is art and you are an extraordinary artist. Well here I go (excitedly) down another rabbit hole....now back to your video.

As someone who studied mechanical engineering I love these videos. I am working on a Lotus Excel from 1988 but definitely not into this much detail. Respect.

The absolute pinnacle of car restoration and videography. Superb as always. It's been too long George.

I'm sure that was as satisfying to accomplish as it was to watch. Nice one George.

You're a very talented man, George. Thank you for producing the best content on KZfaq!!

You outdo yourself with every video. Cheers!

My heart is full. Just bloody lovely work.

Excellent work as always!

Such the entertainer, I was half expecting you to twirl about like Leatherface with that sawzall after dismembering that pile of plastic flotsam and jetsam. You had me so entranced that I completely forgot about my moussaka cooling on the counter! Fantastic as always brother

WOW!!! I have SO much respect for your work! Your commitment and patience is an inspiration. Can’t believe I haven’t found you until now, but so glad I did! 🙏🏼

When it's finaly time for a new vid and expectación are high buy you now that after 23min you want more... can't wait for the next one... Great work...

The respirator is a GREAT suggestion when welding - so is a GUARD when using a cut-off wheel - ever seen one 'explode'? It is a also GREAT idea to use a guard on the cut-off wheel - better to be safe than sorry. GREAT video as usual - in my opinion - the 'GOLD STANDARD' of restoration videos. Be sure to spray some cavity wax into all the internal regions of the chassis when all the painting is finished. I will be disappointed when the LOTUS is finished - this has been a GREAT project. Have a safe and nice day all. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.

I sub'd just before the stop-motion began and wow.. Top notch video-ing.

The word 'meticulous' springs to mind, George. And yes, I do like your welds

never boring...brilliant

Another masterclass in video making. Even if the viewer is not into cars(!) the quality of the photography makes this channel a "must see". Brilliant work George. Well worth the wait. I don't know about the Albert Hall but at least we know how many holes it takes to fill a Lotus chassis.

Thank you for the time you spent in all your video , it’s a really pleasure to look . Hello from France

George! Top notch posting keep them coming dude :-)

Your attention to detail is amazing love it

Oh boy oh boy!

AMAZINGNES!!! Back at it again!!!

As much I'd love to be a Patreon and get me that sweet arsed sticker, I can't even afford my own project let alone pay for yours.... It may not mean much to you, but we're all glad you're so particular and put in so much effort to do this properly. It's the most love an Esprit has ever got and it's eye-bleach in these days of "rebuilding a wrecked supercar" KZfaq. Thanks for putting in the extra touches and taking the time to edit and upload! If you want to see my crappy project, be sure to let me know in the comments below!

Whole new meaning to invisible mending !

The only bad thing about your videos is that I have to stop working to give them my full attention! 🥰 amazing work as always.

Brilliant Brilliant another great video thank you so well done your skills are amazing John

Most relaxing thing on KZfaq. Bravo.

Haha really laughed out loud at the plate/chassis scratching bit XD

as a welder myself im glad your wearing a respirator. nerve damage from that smoke is a real thing. that being said. i hope you have at least fresh air coming it or that stale air being pulled out. that air can still dissipate into the air and still cause damages to ones self

Another awesome video production. well done George

captivating. Glad to see this is still on the cards

Brilliant job on that chassis

I thought you were doing some great work with the W123…. You are going above and beyond with the Lotus! Nice job, still my favorite channel hands down.

Best holiday Monday treat ever!

Best way to start the week !!

Excellent work, entertaining, interesting and educational.

Love the sound effects and subliminal messaging, and the work of course

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that for every minute of video completed George spent an entire week of hard work in production. This is some seriously awesome content here. Kudos, George!

I love the little bit of personalisation at 18:31!

The dedication to repairing the frame as was manufactured is commendable. A fully custom made box section steel trellis retrofit would have been just as epic also.

Oh jesus my heart stopped ..Thought you saved it then bam it's cut up as well .....Oh man ..you all know the two bumpers i mean lol

Another great episode, I can't get enough of this. Cheers mate.

Fantastic, very therapeutic.

Colin Chapman would be proud of you. As are we !

He not making them look bad he is doing a proper repair , to prevent rust again , great job keep it up the other utubers should take lessons from him

Literally the best channel!

I really appreciate the effort you put into the stop motion. That chassis looks so dangerous... It has no side impact ... anything.

Been waiting for this video since your last one was released and finally it’s here and of course it did not disappoint at all.

Great video, George, you deserve an award for the neatest cuts with a hand held grinder too!

Chassis and shop looking awesome!

When every other Lotus chassis is nothing more than a pile of rust, this one will still be spotless...

The master is back! Ronnie has it right, you make most other KZfaqrs look pretty lax about the quality of their videos (except him!). Artistry and engineering in perfect harmony - that's the Soup we know and love. Welcome back George.

Amazing, love the unique style of your video's and the fact you are saving an Esprit.

Lovely slow TV. Perfect for the times. Keep it up!

George, this is my favorite series to watch. Been waiting patiently for this episode and it didn't disappoint :) Thanks for the awesome work, keep 'em coming

Just bloody good as always.

It was worth waiting for the next video! In my opinion one of the best automotive restoration YT channels of the moment! Thanks!

wow, first time watching one of your videos, exceptional production quality (both on the car and filming)!!!

Excellent and well worth the wait. Plenty of subliminal messages and when I played it backwards it said “Drink TAB Clear!” 👍

Favorite channel find of the year.. brb gonna go binge the rest of your content.

Great to have you back, George! Excited for all new project coming from you!

Always excellent

OMG, the fork bit. LOL

Brilliant update well done 👍

You are soooo amazing!!! So unbelievable! Thanks for the great content!!! Keep on doing it!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😍

The space looks great!!!

You are an artist.

Soupie is back!!

George you are therapy - let us all know how the Lotus is doing - missing her

Good ONE _ from Austria

Finding spot welds on rusty / painted panels; run a wire cup brush / wheel over the area and the individual spot welds stand out / show up .

Well worth the wait.

Yet once again! you managed to make a harsh day end in a high tone, thanks for sharing your great passion

Welcome back ❤️

Great to see another episode! Chassis is looking great!

I am just stunned to see your content..its the best i ever found on youtube..the details and perfection you add to your work is phenomenal..thumbs up bro..keep it up.. Love you🥰💕💞
